100,000 Homes: Housing the homeless saves money?
Giving apartments to the chronically homeless can save taxpayer dollars, advocates say
Anderson Cooper: βSo it's more expensive to have a chronically homeless person living on the streets than it is to actually subsidize an apartment for them?β
Answer: βYes, weβre paying more as taxpayers to walk past that person on the street and do nothingβ¦β #HousingFirst

Finland ends homelessness and provides shelter for all in need - scoop.me
In Finland, the number of homeless people has fallen sharply. Why? The country applies the "Housing First" concept agains homelessness.
βIn Finland, the number of homeless people has fallen sharply. Those affected receive a small apartment & counselling with no preconditions. 4 out of 5 people affected make their way back to a stable life. And all this is CHEAPER than accepting homelessness.β
IT SAVES PUBLIC MONEY to house people.

Wealth inequality and the 'K-shaped' economy are more striking than ever, data shows
The K-shaped economy is as apparent as ever and isn't going away anytime soon, economists say.
"K-shaped" means the rich and super-rich are flourishing, while the rest are struggling. They are rich in financial assets, stocks, bonds and real estate. When those markets crumble, they'll be demanding we bail them out.

Anand Giridharadas: What the Epstein Documents Reveal About Power in America
The Epstein class, people practiced in not hearing another's pain, in profiting no matter who is in power, for whom sex trafficking of girls is not a deal-breaker.

Canada isnβt perfect but it is a mix of both socialism and capitalism. Most everyone I met living there was humane, conscientious, civic centered.
